I would try 4th with a shim

I agree with Doug, probably not bead related. next thing to check would be stem bearings. Vertical vibration seems unlikely, but if you do indeed have vertical vibration, it could be wheel beating...

If it's just a straight pipe, you should be able to get a universal baffle and install it in the pipe to quiet it down

05 model, original battery, has never had a battery tender, at least two years that I can remember my dad let it sit all winter without being cranked and battery was dead as a hammer in the spring. I...

My wife sits in it all the time during fill up, never caused a problem before.

The progression according to kuryakyn is normal, pro, pro-r in terms of flow. I've seen minimal performance gains on sites that have compared the pro to the pro-r, and I've also seen reports of the...

There is a lot more too it than looking where you are going. At higher speeds, that's basically it. At lower speeds however, you have to have excellent clutch control, because if you kill it during a...

This is looking asking someones favorite color, and then asking why. It's personal preference in many cases. personally, I'm running a Michelin hydroedge 205 70 15 car tire on rear, and Avon road...

The popular choices seem to be a 230 Avon, 200 metzler, or 205 car tire.

Lol Doug, don't get all testy on us!

To OP. It's normal to hear what sounds like a vacuum leak when choke is being used if you have an open air cleaner.

If you are getting a roll on stumble,...

Get whatever intake you like the look of. when properly jetted, you well sere performance improvements with any of them. I got the kury because I liked the look, the performance is great. If I had...

Here is what I would do:

option 1:

1. Install factory spring and needle
2. Run two shims
3. Get a factory 220 main jet

Option 2:

drill a hole and tap it, install a bolt. When bolt is worn down, change it. Simple fix.

Im a huge advocate of learning excellent slow speed manuevering as well, that is where most people drop...

I get this ever so slightly on my rear fender tip. Windex takes it right off.

I hate fuel lights, just something to forget. The reserve is a simple system thats bulletproof. They have been building bikes with that same concept employed for years. You cant miss it or ignore. As...

Actually, since you mention that willy, an 8v92 is what was flooding my brain, and admittedly i mispoke on the compression stroke. This is part of the problem with getting older, working on 2 stroke...

marietta and lawrenceville are the same way.

The exhaust valves will naturally open like they do normally at the end of the compression cycle. What a jake brake does, is hold them closed longer than normal, but not so long as to build...

Its possible that its been swapped out with a dynojet spring, which would make sense seeing as how you have a dj needle. I would pick up an oem spring at the dealer. 60 slow jet is up to you, I did...

I have an avon roadrider on the front right now. Happy with it so far. Its on a retro rim though, so it doesnt really compare to your c tire choices.

That 185/65 combination is very commonly shipped with many aftermarket intakes. That slow jet is causing you alot of problem. and the 185 is actually smaller than stock, so you are losing ALOT of...

All of the above is accurate. IMO the 230 looks very odd, the 205 CT is about as big as I would go.

Also, what year is your bike. Some had fuel pumps, could be the pump acting odd after a fill up.

Just to correct some people:


A motor IS an air pump, but there are many more factors than this. A Jake brake does not change the principle of how engine braking works, it simply enhances it. It...

This is probably attributed to the cost of the plugs. I mean, when your talking 8 bucks for a set, for some people it comes down to time, and the 15 minutes it would take with a brass toothbrush and...
